Re: KOFE Story Brainstorming

I'd be very disappointed to have to leave a community filled with petty egotists who gang up on anything that doesn't kiss its ass, but I am dedicated to my conviction that you are a sissy and thus not worth listening to.

Huh. Good idea; we really shouldn't be listening to you, should we?

Well, if you guys aren't going to listen to me, I guess I should expect fewer sissy responses.

Re: KOFE Story Brainstorming

Maybrow, the purpose of this board is not to assist you in giving yourself self assurance or a higher sense of yourself. It is not to pick fights or debate criticize individuals. I am tired of watching you roll around my board polluting it with pointless posting that have nothing to do with KOFE. You were warned and had your chance to make peace. Instead you chose to continue provoking people. I am banning you from this board.

Note that from now on, any posting that you do in my boards will be deleted. I will not even make the attempt to read them. I would ask that everyone else just ignore his postings until they are deleted. Let's get back on topic please.

Re: KOFE Story Brainstorming

So, with everything else moving along, time to share the revisions to the story:

Intro Story:

Chizuru prays by the fire one night after the chaos of KOF XIII. She has been unsettled ever since Ash vanish from existence. The timeline has been disrupted and a tidal effect is rippling through time. The time when the effect hits the present time is near. As she prays, she sees a vision. The dead returning and the timelines merging. Hated foes like Goenitz and Rugal back among the living, Orochi Unleashed and something more sinister.

The Goddess Athena appears before her, sensing her sensitivity to the incoming imbalance of good and evil. She tells Chizuru that there is a greater evil on the horizon and the tidal effect will weaken the barrier between worlds. She has come to help balance things out and offset the power of Orochi, but she will need the help of Earth's champions to draw out the new evil and defeat it. Chizuru decides to hold a new KOF tournament to assist the Goddess in her quest to restore balance and solve the mystery of the new evil.

Mid Story:

The unnamed evil resurrects the unwitting puppet Shiki to serve as a herald and gain the support of powerful evils to conquor this realm. Shiki is drawn to KOF and finds and joins the resurrected Orochi who recognizes the evil that controls her as his brother Yomi. Shiki reveals that Yomi wishes to further break dimensional rifts to bring about his warlord Neo-Dio. Orochi agrees to help if only to see the chaos Neo-Dio will bring. The team journey to Orochi's old resurrection site where the dimensional barriers are at their weakest.

In order to regain balance, Athena calls out to her sister Gaea to summon a herald of her own to stop Shiki and counter act Yomi's dark powers. Gaea sends her herald Nakoruru to help Chizuru and Athena. Athena places her in the care of the old Legends team in order to ensure she has protectors should Orochi attempt to ambush her. Nakoruru sends out a distress call to all able bodied fighters to join her against Orochi, but the call also reaches villains who would see Orochi succeed. The villains mobilize to block the would be heroes from stopping the summoning of Neo-Dio.

Pre Boss Story:

Neo-Dio Path (True Path)

Goddess Athena's band of heroes make it to the site before Orochi, but discover that NESTS is in a battle to hold the site for Orochi's arrival from the Ikari Warriors, the Neo Cartel and the Agency. The remaining heroes join the fight and push back NESTS allowing for Goddess to strike down Zero. Before the heroes can celebrate, the Heralds of Orochi arrive and Shiki strikes down Goddess in a sneak attack. Her blood is all that is needed to break the dimensional walls. As Nakoruru desperately tries to heal the wounded god, Neo Dio steps into our world. He immediately betrays Orochi and absorbs his life essence to become even strong.

Re: KOFE Story Brainstorming

So I've updated the story with a mid story update. I'll try to do the pre-boss battle later today too. Bosses aside, there are 16 teams registered in this KOF and so I'll go over each one's intro in updates to this blog.

Heroes Team: Kyo, Iori, Benimaru, Goro

Iori's choice to regain his treasure has an effect on him. He realizes he has a responsibility and cannot just do as he pleases. He also pauses to think about how he has been letting his powers control him for so long. He seeks out Kyo for a final decisive battle, stating that he wishes to kill the ghosts of the past and let both of them move to their own future. The atomsphere of this battle is different than the others as it pits two comrades in arms, rather than rivals or fighters obsessed with the fight. The battle interrupted by a vision of the reawakened Orochi. Benimaru and Goro join the fighters showing an invite to the next KOF. Understanding that the tensions between then are different now that Iori has experienced life without the curse, he offers Iori a spot on their four man team.

Kyo"Destiny curses us to play a role from which we are obliged to follow. Maybe this is an opportunity for us to break the cycle and give ourselves our own purpose."

Iori"Call it whatever you want. The only thing that concerns me now is shoving this curse back down Orochi's own throat."

Benimaru"He's a wild card. What if the curse takes over again."

Kyo"If our fight has shown anything, it's that he can control the curse within him."

Re: KOFE Story Brainstorming

Diana and Foxy look to expand the team's role to more than just helping Heidern's band of mercenaries. They create their own operation called the Neo Cartel with the intention of having less of a global presence and do more of the covert operations. They do only the missions they want to do and communicate with Heidern through Whip. During one of their missions, K` and Maxima discover an old NESTS base. They realize that someone has been there first and has used their NESTS access codes to obtain information. Are there other members of NESTS still alive? Whip radios the team. Another KOF tournament is about to begin. Perhaps the team will find its answers there.

Re: KOFE Story Brainstorming

Well I enjoy writing more than coding. That's for sure. I'll definitely have an intro storyboard with graphics and text. Not sure if I'll have one main ending or an ending per team. More thought required on how I can get that done.

Agency: Ash, Elisabeth, Shen, Duo Lon

Despite Ash removing himself from existence, something continued to linger. Elisabeth still remembered celebrating his birthdays, playing with him in the field and teaching him to ride horses. He couldn't be completely gone. Elisabeth and Shen, her new bodyguard, travel with a small entourage to Duo Lon's village. Duo Lon assistance is stopping Saiki has regained him some respect within his clan. There she hopes to create an alliance that will see both her network and Hizoku's reach grow. As the old friends meet up, Duo Lon reveals Ash to a shocked Elisabeth. In his hands, he holds a KOF envelope from Chizuru. Somehow she knew he would return.

Duo Lon"The village priests have sensed a disruption in the natural balances that has steadily been increasing since Ash disappeared. Chizuru must know what that is."

Elisabeth"Does it really matter? Ash has returned and I would very much like to keep it that way."

Ash"Oh Betty, I'm not sure how much time I really have, so I can't pass up such an interesting mystery."

Elisabeth"Alright, if I can't stop you, then I shall join you. But you are not to leave my side!"
